Desired Results
Transfer Goals (Priority practice standards in bold)
Students will be able to independently use their learning to: MP.1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. MP.2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. MP.3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. MP.4. Model with mathematics. MP.5. Use appropriate tools strategically. MP.6. Attend to precision. MP.7. Look for and make use of structure. MP.8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
Established Goals (2011 MA Curriculum Frameworks Standards Incorporating the Common Core State Standards)
WIDA for English Language Learners Prerequisite Standards: Standard 1: ELLs communicate for Social and Instructional purposes within the school setting 5.NF.A: Use equivalent fractions as a strategy to add and subtract fractions. Standard 3: ELLs communicate information, 5.NF.B: Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to multiply and divide fractions. ideas and concepts necessary for academic 5.MD.1: Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system (e.g., success in the content area of Mathematics convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real-world problems. In the lesson planning stage, teachers will need to differentiate lessons for ELLs. In order to Standards (Priority Standards in bold): accomplish this they will need: 1.) this curriculum map, 2.) a list of their ELLs and their 6.RP.1: Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two proficiency levels, and 3.) appropriate language quantities. For example, “The ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2:1, because for every 2 wings function expectations and scaffolds or there was 1 beak.” “For every vote candidate A received, candidate C received nearly three votes.” supports. 6.RP.2: Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. For example, “This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is ¾ cup of flour for each cup of sugar.” “We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.”
Page 1 Unit Planning Guide: Grade 6 Unit 2 of 7 6.RP.3: Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations. o 6.RP.3a: Make tables of equivalent ratios relating quantities with whole-number measurements, find missing values in the tables, and plot the pairs of values on the coordinate plane. Use tables to compare ratios. o 6.RP.3b: Solve unit rate problems, including those involving unit pricing and constant speed. For example, if it took 7 hours to mow 4 lawns, then, at that rate, how many lawns could be mowed in 35 hours? At what rate were lawns being mowed? o 6.RP.3c: Find a percent of a quantity as a rate per 100 (e.g., 30% of a quantity means 30/100 times the quantity); solve problems involving finding the whole, given a part and the percent. o 6.RP.3d: Use ratio reasoning to convert measurement units; manipulate and transform units appropriately when multiplying or dividing quantities. o 6.RP.MA.3e: Solve problems that relate the mass of an object to its volume.

How do ratio and rate connect to whole number multiplication and division? A ratio is a number that relates two quantities or measures within a given sit- uation in a multiplicative relationship (in contrast to a difference or additive relationship). The relationships and rules govern whole numbers, govern all rational numbers. Making explicit the types of relationships that exist between two values will minimize confusion between multiplicative and additive situations. Ratios can express comparisons of a part to whole (a/b with b ≠ 0), for example, the ratio of the number of boys in a class to the number of students in the class.
